Italy opposes Israeli ground invasion in Rafah

On Tuesday, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said that Italy is against an Israeli ground invasion into Rafah.

"We will reiterate our opposition to military action on the ground by Israel in Rafah that could have even more catastrophic consequences for the civilians crowded in that area," Meloni told lawmakers in the Senate.

She also added that establishing new land routes and a sea corridor from Cyprus to Gaza, to ensure the safe delivery of humanitarian aid to the Palestinian enclave, was a priority.
